Denver School of Nursing, July 2017 cohort

Hello everyone! I am also on the alternate list for the July start. Has anyone else on the alternate list heard back yet? Good luck to all!

Hi all! I still have not heard back re my status on the alternate list.. I'm really hoping to hear something before May since I'd be moving from California! I feel like the odds are good but am still super nervous. Best of luck to everyone :)

I just had my interview on Tuesday and he says it's still going to be a few weeks before they start contacting alternates!

How do people end up on the alternate list? I applied for the October 2017 and the only thing that lacked in my application was the work/volunteer experience.

That is the same for me! I hope somebody responds!

Basically when they have a large number of qualified applicants, and don't have enough room to make an offer to everyone, you are placed on the alternate list. My understanding is they look at your experiences as a whole (which you talk about in your essay), and make a determination from there. Hope this helps!

It sure did. Thanks. Hopefully, there aren't as many applicants for this cohort.

Just out of curiosity, is anyone else applying to this school that isn't from Colorado?

Me, I am from Phoenix, Arizona. I also have NO experience but mentioned that I am a full time student and server and could not take time off to volunteer due to my job/money.

I'm from Las Vegas. I should have said why I couldn't volunteer/work in the healthcare profession too, but it was difficult condensing everything into one page. Why did you choose to apply to DSN?

Hi, I applied and got accepted. I'm from Houston Texas! I am looking forward to meet you guys.

Oh my gosh!!! How do you know so soon?! Is this for October 2017 start? Congratulations!!!!!
